"Unfortunately, several sentences are missing in the recipe. After you've cut the carrots in 1/2 in. wide strips, the recipe should read: "Stack two strips together; loosely tie into a knot. Repeat to make five more carrot knots. Set knots and remaining strips aside. Cut zucchini ends at an angle. Using the peeler, peel zucchini into thin strips; cut each 1/2 in. wide." Recipe continues as printed at this point.

We apologize for the inconvenience and the recipe will be corrected here soon.
